Cuarteto Quiroga live in Cabrières-d'Avignon

Experience Cuarteto Quiroga live on August 20th

Cuarteto Quiroga, a string quartet formed in 1996, is renowned for its interpretations of both canonical and lesser-known works within the string quartet repertoire. Their playing style is characterized by a warm, rich tone and a meticulous attention to detail, often described as possessing both intellectual rigor and emotional depth. The quartet frequently explores the Spanish musical heritage alongside central European composers like Beethoven, Mozart and Schubert. They are known for their commitment to historical performance practice informed by scholarship.

The concert will take place at Église De Cabrières, located in the village of Cabrières-d'Avignon in Provence, France. This church dates back to the 12th century, initially constructed as a Romanesque chapel before undergoing significant modifications during the 17th and 18th centuries. Notably, it features a unique architectural element: a wooden rib vault ceiling constructed without any supporting pillars – a rare example of Provençal Gothic architecture. The church’s acoustics are considered particularly well-suited for chamber music performances due to its stone construction and relatively intimate size.
